Hi. I’m Aidan. I’m 23 years old and live in the small tourist orientated town of Killarney, Ireland.
I’m have recently completed the Computing and Software Development course at the local Institute of Technology. As such, I am currently “between jobs” as the saying goes. I program mainly in Java and C#, though I do try to dabble into a few other languages when I can get the chance.
I have had this space for some time now and have been meaning to do something with it. I used also maintain another blog (or Journal, as the hosting site preferred to call it) but since it didn’t really fit in with the focus on that site I have decided to move it here. If you want to take a look at that, you’ll have to bounce back through the archives, since its been a while since it was updated.
One thing you might learn about me there is that I do tend to have some ambitious ideas. I would hope to be able to share some of those here, even if I do not end up developing any of them myself. Others, I do hope to pick up some day, and this blog will in those cases serve as a journal of their development.
I also have something of an amateur interest in user experience in computing. For all the good that has happened in the last few years, there is still a long, long way to go. It doesn’t help that I can be easily frustrated – I prefer things to “just work”. But how often does that happen, eh?
I do hope that you will stick with me. I will need all the feedback that I can get while I try to push forward in these. There may occasionally be some more personalised entries like this one. I hope they won’t put you off too much 
Onward and upward…
